Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Thanks for the info @16thBBall Fan!
Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Interesting seeing Douglass playing ALL of the other Fayette County public schools when none of them are in their district. I would like to see some bigger challenges on the schedule in place of 2 or 3 of those games. I realize that they're "playing up" in division by scheduling them, but why not challenge yourself more?

Not 100% sure but the district and the district AD requires all public Lexington schools to play each other. They did drop the lower class schools the played in the Beef Jerky bowl and upgraded to Lexington Catholic and scrimmage Trinity as well.

If so, they're doing a disservice to the potential quality of their football teams.

TheDeuce Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 If so, they're doing a disservice to the potential quality of their football teams. No kidding, that is not helping their cases at all. Let them schedule who they want.

TheDeuce Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 I verified this morning all Lexington public schools are required to play each other. I wonder what the reasoning behind that is?
16thBBall Fan Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 I wonder what the reasoning behind that is? I have no idea some years that would be fine, but there is a lot of teams in Louisville and Northern Kentucky or Ohio that Douglass would benefit more playing. I agree 100%!
barrel Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 I would guess it has to do with travel cost. They have a district AD don’t they? Every school has an AD and then there is one for the district too?

Fayette County doesn't give any money to athletics other than the coach's stipend so I would welcome staying in town to play as many as I could if I had to fundraise for my buses.
gamebreaker Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 It really makes the success they are having seem even more incredible! Fayette county School board really does not promote Athletics at all it seems.
Johnny_Utah Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Take a look @ any Louisville public school football schedule & they basically do the same thing. Many teams don't leave Jefferson Co. :idunno: (sidenote) I am not comparing Fayette Co. football to Jefferson Co. football in this assertion, just showing that it happens.
ATLCat Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Meh..... Would have liked to see a better schedule
